Poll: Online ticket surcharges, how do you feel about them?

Hometown History Tours will be announcing their exciting 2012 tour line up soon. Meanwhile, I’d like your opinion on online ticket surcharges. Would you prefer ticket surcharges (fees applied for using professional ticket processing services) be already included in the ticket price or is adding the fee to your purchase okay?

Including the fees into the ticket price, makes the tour price seem more expensive and may turn people off. Also, people who pay by cash or check are then paying fees for services they aren’t using. However, adding another cost on top of the ticket price can irk people as well. Please help! What is your VALUED opinion?
